Surrogacy

Thanks Mel, you're not too bad yourself.

Turkey baster?

IF we ceased, immediately, all Government "benefits" for people to have babies and bring up kids, would be a good start. Most of us never got anything from The Government to help us bring up children.

Costello/Howard should be shot for bringing this in or "how will we cope without the baby bonus" crap.

If You want to have a family, THINK (or use contraceptives) before you fuck, and accept that having a child is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY and only you should go without to pay for the up-bringing of the kid .... it is NOT the Taxpayers' fault you got pregnant.

There are plenty of couples out there who have decided not to have children, yet they're forced to pay for them. After the baby bonus and family benefits were introduced - the waste on the side of the road every council pick up day has been disgusting. Bikes, TV's, computers, barely used furniture etc. all thrown in big piles and exposed to the elements. Hand me downs and recycling are a thing of the past. It's hard to imagine anyone in this country being impoverished.

I agree with mantra's original post and poxy being the pc prog cultural cringer that he/she is calling out ALL Australians for the actions of 1 couple is yet again a sign of both stupidity and hypocrisy.

Do grow up Troll.

pc prog cultural cringer

...... I enjoyed this, and also googled it to see if you had swiped it from elsewhere.

It would appear you coined this yourself.

Fanastic.


More of this please Roach.

I guess you meant BOs original comment?

It's at least 2 couples so far (that we've heard about... prime yourself for more ).

Who'd have thunk we could call out a whole demographic for the actions of the extremists amongst them? Political correctness gone wild, I tells ya!

But seriously... let them do it here, where we can monitor the ethics of it, and prosecute douchebags who neglect their progeny just because they don't meet their expectations.

If our authorities pulled their fingers out of their asses and removed infants from the care of their incapable drug-addicted parents permanently, like those we saw on Struggle street, there would be plenty of children available for adoption right here in Australia, no need for surrogacy.

Though the trouble with this is you have the do-gooder PC lefty tribe who would argue that this would be not unlike another stolen generation.

So,we just continue handing babies and damaged children back to their drug addicted and abusive impoverished parents from Mt Druitt, coupled with a baby bonus...and continue turning a blind eye because apparently this is the politically correct thing to do.
